Green harvesting

Green harvesting is an agricultural technique where plants are harvested in stages, allowing some parts—like leaves or fruits—to be collected while the rest continues to grow. This approach enables farmers to increase overall productivity over multiple harvests from the same crop, reduces waste, and minimizes environmental impact since it often requires less energy and resources. For example, harvesting only mature leaves from a plant, leaving the younger parts to develop further, supports sustainable farming and maximizes yield from each planting.
